A Hollywood production for sure, but I never found the cameras

We had a female elected official (golly that's in keeping), a Capitol building in the background, a lovers triangle, an attempted homicide, sex, drugs, a Latin lover (working as a janitor?), hospitals, evidence of past dubious doings, a divorce, tons of emotion, finger pointing, lots of Police, fire trucks and ambulances galore, a car crash with steam rising from vehicles shrouded in darkness, innocent children, a grandmother, an arrest, felony charges, TV news people pounding on front doors and talking to neighbors, but none of the trappings usually found when they are taping a quick and dirty TV movie or soap opera.

Where were all the production support vehicles, the camera truck, the lighting truck, the producer and director trailers, the canteen truck and all the electrical cables strung everywhere? Please don't tell me they taped it with Cell phones.

If the pilot sells maybe I can hire on as an extra.

Isn't every-day reality grand?
